When I was younger
I seem to remember
Holding a finger while walking to
Mother standing
By ten I could tell her
Ill love you forever
And Ill tread on the stars just to be with you
Notwithstanding
When staring into her naked face
Yes, I wished my eyes would never stray
She said why cry little baby
Why cry yeh yeh
Why cry pretty baby
Wipe your eyes yeh yeh
Now I am older
I dont sit on her shoulder
To gaze over worlds that are lower to
The higher standing
Instead Im staring into your ageless face
Yes, and I wish my eyes will never stray
So why cry little baby
Why cry yeh yeh
Why cry pretty baby
Wipe your eyes yeh yeh
Why should you worry
You know therell be an answer
When you call
So dont you push or be in a hurry
cause learning how to stand
Is why you fall
When I was younger
I seem to remember
Holding a finger while walking to
Mother standing
